Major bombshell, and sorry, but this certainly requires a breaking tag as well: HP has announced it is discontinuing operations for webOS devices - effective immediately. Just like that... The TouchPad and Pre 3 are dead. Eh. Raise your hands if this brings back those painful memories of that infamous 'Focus Shift'. In addition, the company also announced its intention to sell its personal computer business.

I decided to pick up a few touchpads as gifts for the family. $99 dollar touchpads are a steal. Viva la webos!

I wanted to buy those cheap ones too, but I don't know why here in Finland all the TouchPads are still the original price and there is no price drop announced anywhere. I'm pretty sad, I would've loved to give a TouchPad as a gift :<
